Wrapping Up
Once everyone had finished Euripides suggested a few tips for future presentations in reviews.
Do more visual stuff on the slides, less words and larger images. Many of the presentations today featured tiny thumbnails of their images and it was tricky to see.
Open the slides with a big image and a title or name then share images and be sure to promote your work rather than explaining everything.
Think of it as an exercise in Marketing rather than an assignment with slides to explain everything. Use the images as prompts and then talk over them, giving them the most attention.
I’ll post details of my slides on the next post and maybe add some info as to what people said about my images.
